Easy Dinner Ideas for Tonight
The New York Times Oh, September. You are madness. You are back-to-school and back-to-work after August laze and Labor Day. You are crisp new notebooks and backpacks. You are closed-toe shoes. You are calendars cross-referenced, car pools arranged, nut-free lunches assembled.
Figuring out dinner every day is already a chore, but in hectic September, it can be a trial.
I write a New York Times Cooking newsletter called Five Weeknight Dishes, with five recipes for busy people who still want something good to eat. (Sign up for it here.) And so, in honor of September, Ive picked 100 dinner recipes I think you should try this year, ideas that make it easy to eat deliciously.
All 100 recipes are straightforward, and many need only 30 minutes to make. None take more than an hour, and if they do take that long, most of the time is hands-off. I kept kids in mind when I picked these recipes, but the truth is that no matter where you are in life, September has a way of sweeping us all. I hope you find dishes here to love, and that you put them on repeat all year long.
